We constantly find ourselves questioning humanity and where do we fall in this rise of technology, this cross breeding of our complex organisms with logical mechanics, this Hybrid that is forming a transhuman culture; Cyborgs.

What about the cyborg relationship with the environment surroundings? It is now necessary to design architecture that is a mere extension of our being. A building that like, a prosthetic glove, extends our capabilities. To successfully achieve this merge is by looking at things beyond their frame, as it is only when you disassemble, analyse and then reassemble parts again in a different way, you create a new reality.

Those questions drive the design of a hospital city in a post-disaster scenario, where delivery of medical needs in a quarantined area of Milazzo is crucial. Using the non-invasive integration of Nano Electronic devices with cells to synthesis biological tissues implanted to monitor their body with real-time response, rendering them as Cyborgs.

Using this symbiotic relationship between the building and the patient (sensor-recipient), resources are delivered wirelessly in an artificial-climate controlled unit cells residing 10,000 people, forming a living Architecture.

Processing Motion Sensor

In this following processing motion sensor project, I experimented with the idea of a person being connected to their environment by being a cyborg. Which was done live at the AA Jury.
